The detection of two unknown urinary steroids called x and y in various patients was previously reported. Compound x was tentatively characterized as a derivative of dihydro-18-hydroxy-DOC with two additional polar groups. In this communication clinical observations of a set of 25 hypertensive patients are presented. Compound x alone was found in 4 cases, compound y alone 4 cases and both compound x and y in 5 cases. In several other cases, hypokalemia and/or a decreased urinary Na+/K+ ratio were found.
